I played guitar and bass in my teenage into early 20 years, about a 10 year run on and off. I picked up guitar to play in church again some 20+ years later at 56 and 3 years later switched to bass, it was needed since we only had one more bass player and it is my passion. I am still learning at...

Are they thinking something like this?

I gave up on mine and live with the hiss. Tech 21 gave many suggestions to try, run off batteries, only use the DI removing all other pedals from the chain, replace cables, remove the amp connection and just run it back to the house and vice versa, etc. but nothing helped.

I have had nothing but good experiences with them and their customer service. Couple of years ago I ordered a Martin D-28, the nut seemed odd, like if someone had messed around with it. I called them, they sent me a replacement right away without waiting for my return, the replacement was top...

Funny, you are the first one I have met who figured it out. Most people ask me if I work for a company named Acme. That's my favorite cartoon.

My wife says you are the greatest ... saved us some money :)

Mint? you did not say mint did you? Not quite my tempo :)

Good suggestion, I think this my favorite so far. Thanks.

Interesting, I have a tort pickguard, I'll try that and see what it looks like.
